What Car?'s choice of the best Amazon Prime Day 2023 deals for motorists
We've hunted out the top deals on car-related products available as part of the 2023 Amazon Prime Day sales...
At What Car?, we don't just review cars – we also test the products, tools and accessories that you might want to use with them. And the good news is that with Amazon Prime Day returning on July 11-12, there are some big discounts on many of the products we recommend.
Below we take a look at these deals. Plus, we've rounded up the largest discounts on other car-related products, starting with the largest percentage discount.
Discounts listed are versus manufacturer recommended retail prices (RRPs), and remember to access these deals you have to be a member of Amazon Prime. However, you can join Amazon Prime for a 30-day free trial here.
We rate this machine as the best pressure washer you can buy – for two major reasons. Firstly, it features an unbeatable balance of keen price, top-drawer cleaning performance, and essential accessories. And secondly, it’s just a brilliant design. For example, it comes fully assembled in a small box, with a hinged and foldable rear handle that makes it extremely compact. You can also swap between pencil jet, fan, and turbo nozzle with a twist of the wrist thanks to what Bosch calls the ‘Trio Nozzle’. And it’s even better value on Prime Day.
If the Aquatak 135 is out of your budget, maybe consider its little brother, the Aquatak 120, now available at £79.99, a 27% discount
If the Bosch isn’t for you, there’s great offers on rival products from Karcher this Prime Day – and one is quite a bit cheaper than the Bosch too.
Karcher K2 Power Control - £71.20 – 23% off
Karcher K3 Power Control - £119.49 – 25% off
Karcher K4 Power Control - £169.99 – 29% off

Battery Charger: NOCO Genius5UK - BEST BUY - £62.95 – 23% off
This charger delivers exactly what most users will ever need at a more appealing price. It's the all-in-one charging solution - battery charger, battery maintainer, trickle charger, battery conditioner, plus battery desulfator. Charges dead batteries as low as 1-volt. Just charge it up, and store it in your car’s boot as an easy way to banish flat-battery blues.
In-car vacuum cleaner: VacLife - £49.99 – 20% off
The VacLife feels solidly built, and the attachments – including a crevice nozzle and a brush head – fit securely and make it easy to get under your seats, or to hoover large areas of carpet or suede. There’s also an LED light to help you see into awkward corners, plus a slim ‘detail’ brush that’s great for cleaning out your air vents. It has a 20 minute running time. On top of that, the VacLife is one of the quietest of our budget vacuums, despite also being one of the more powerful. A great all-round compact vacuum, at a really great price, especially on Prime Day.
This is our most expensive option, so it’s no surprise that it is also the most powerful and would do a fine job of your house, as well as the car – particularly because it comes with a compact, rotary vacuum head that did the best job of removing dog fur from a carpet. It’s heavier than some rivals, but the variety of attachments still makes this very versatile, and it’s easy to manoeuvre one-handed. It’s the best cordless hoover here by some margin. It has a 20 minute running time.
Now let’s take a look at the some of the biggest discounts available on Prime Day 2023 on car-related products:
